The Murkbind Serpent, called “Thura-Vesh” by the Orlanda Tribe, is a semi-aquatic snake native to the reed-choked waters and muddy islets of the Orlanda Marshes. This stealthy predator is known for its dark, mottled scales that resemble rotting roots or hanging vines, allowing it to remain nearly invisible among the tangled marsh undergrowth.

Feared by many marsh-dwellers and revered by some Orlanda mystics, the Murkbind Serpent strikes from shadowy pools or dangles motionless among reeds, waiting to ambush prey.
